After cleaning and drying your scissors we recommend that you keep your cuts smooth by oiling them. Carefully open your scissor to a 90-degree angle and apply 1 drop of Matakki scissor oil to where the scissor pivots. This assists in the cleaning process by pushing dirt, debris, and hair from under the pivot and leaves a small layer of protective scissor oil. This process should be carried out daily to prolong the life of your scissors.
